Many thanks to everyone who responded. I've tried all suggestions and still
no diff. Either I'm doing something stupid, or there's something else we
don't know yet.

Any further ideas will be gratefully and hungrily latched upon and tried.

Well my input is...although I haven't noticed if this was presented or not...Windoze sets IE with a default error page that will just show it's own error page instead of the real one...you can turn this off if you want or you can just use Macintosh or Nix since the only thing Windoze is good for is surfing porn! ;-)

Hi,

My two cents...:) IE has recently undergone some sort of change in the way it displays error pages...and I haven't figured out how to turn it off yet...I've only managed to change the default search engine you get when there is no page at all. But, I've also heard that you can still override the page IE chooses to show by making sure your error page is over a certain byte size...(seems that 8k was some magic number). I've tried searching for this information and didn't turn up anything so maybe I'm just dreaming, but if you are pretty sure your .htaccess file is correct...try making sure you errordocs are over 8-10k each and see if that helps.

see ya,
Diana
